How can a tutor help you master the PSAT?

Taking the SAT is somewhat of a rite of passage for high school students moving on to college. It is a test that measures students' readiness for college through assessing what they have learned so far in high school. The SAT plays a large role in determining things like the types of colleges a student can get into and the type of financial aid they are likely to receive. Because of this importance, taking the PSAT is a popular option for students looking to prepare for ultimately taking the SAT. If your child is getting ready to take the PSAT, working with a private tutor is a great way for them to get some extra help with their test preparation. Varsity Tutors can assist you in connecting with a professional PSAT tutor in Seattle, Washington, who can help your child prep for the PSAT.

Preparing for the PSAT can be a challenge, as it covers several different subjects. Reading and mathematics sections are included on this test, and students are given two hours and ten minutes to complete these sections. Seattle, WA, PSAT tutoring can allow your child to work with lesson plans that are designed to strengthen the areas they need the most help with. Say your child is proficient at math but struggles with reading, their tutor can design lessons that spend more time with test questions they struggle with than ones they understand. Any questions that your child might have can also be answered immediately, so your child won't have to waste time trying to find the answers themselves.

Another great part about working with a PSAT tutor is the option to determine when and where they meet with your child. That could mean after school or on the weekend, at your house, or online. It's all up to you and your child, and what works best for your schedules.

Recent Tutoring Session Reviews

★★★★★

"We covered one math and one reading section in Practice Test 2. We reviewed the first full page of vocabulary in the vocab section. The student practiced outlining an essay. Her reading scores have increased dramatically, especially on the non-vocabulary questions."

★★★★★

"In this session, we worked through the uncompleted grammar homework assigned on Monday to see which grammar topics the student needs to review. Based on the results, we reviewed the following grammar topics: comparisons (congruent types), modifiers (applied to individual items or plural items), parallel construction, verb tenses (past, present, and future, and within each of those: simple, ongoing, and 'throwback'). We summarized the topics covered in a 'grammar guide' that the student is to use while working through the grammar questions assigned for the next session."

★★★★★

"The student is making good progress. We focused on the vocabulary work for the first part of the session. There is definite improvement in his ability to appropriately narrow down the answers. At his request we worked on some writing exercises to nail down the grammar issues and how to look for what they are testing in each question. Also did some of the harder/less used math sections to work on giving him the tools to answer those last couple questions that can boost his score. He will primarily work on vocabulary from now until the test. He can also do whatever exercises he feels moved to. There is one final practice test in the book that is to be done just before our last session."

★★★★★

"Today we conducted an assessment of all three test sections. The student also completed writing multiple choice practice and a vocabulary quiz. No concerns to report. He seems to be struggling the most with the writing section. "

★★★★

"We conducted a brief review of all three sections of the preliminary admissions test, going over the most important strategy within each section and sub-section. We then turned to math drilling of the fundamental concepts most important to the math section with the goal of then building off this foundation."

★★★★★

"Today, we started by first going over a test that the student had taken so that I could see where he was at. I showed him some resources he could get for more practice such as the assessment practice tests online. The next hour was spent going over a method for critical reading, including annotating the paragraph and eliminating answers. I gave him a practice test, and assigned him the assessment concept sheet on the site so he could be prepared for next week."

★★★★★

"I had the student finish up the writing portion of the diagnostic test, and I will review her answers next week. We went over the questions on the critical reading and math section of the diagnostic test that she did last week. I also made online flashcards for her and an account online so she could expand her vocabulary. We reviewed 20 new words today and will learn 10 new words for each session. Towards the last half of the session, we reviewed strategies for the math section of the test."

★★★★

"We worked on Critical Reading. The student completed two practice sections. I scored the sections while I was there and we identified areas that the student needed to cover. I have no concerns from this session."

★★★★★

"This session was an introductory session discussing the structure/question types of the SAT, as well as the scoring system. There was also time for a preliminary assessment of the student's SAT Writing level towards the end of the session. I left him a homework assignment to study a list of 50 vocabulary words, on which there will be an oral quiz next session. Future sessions may work best at 2 hours each."

★★★★★

"The student and I worked through three sample SAT sections. On the Critical Reading, she was able to reason her way to the answers of most sentence-completion questions, even if she didn't know some of the words. The Math posed almost no difficulty at all, and she did pretty well on the Writing section. "

★★★★★

"We worked on the reading section today, going over sentence completion and reading comprehension. We also worked on the math section, talking through any problems that weren't immediately solvable. I left an essay prompt to be completed for next week."
